Explanation
Generally, drivers should pass other vehicles on the left side of the road. However, there are some exceptions to this rule. When a vehicle in front of you is preparing to turn left and there is enough space for you to pass on the right side safely, you can do so. This exception is allowed because the other vehicle is moving to the left side of the road, leaving the right side open for you to pass. It is important to ensure that you are passing safely and staying on the roadway while passing on the right.
